Piao Miao journey

Chapter 5

The shopkeeper of the clothing store followed Li Qiang anxiously, praying to God and praying to the Buddha secretly: "My silver, the Bodhisattva bless you!"

Cheng Zizhong introduced: "This is the best and largest silver building in this city, Zhao Jibao Silver Decoration Gold Building. Don't be dazed, the shopkeeper, go in and say hello."

The shopkeeper of the tailor shop rushed in and shouted: "Master Zhao, I have brought you a distinguished guest, come out to greet you soon."

"Hey, it's you, Fatty Qi, slow down, don't fall. Some distinguished guest has come to the door." A thin and capable middle-aged man greeted with laughter: "Isn't this Old Master Cheng? You are always busy. Man, why come to the shop when you have time!" His tone was warm.

"Old monkey, can't I come and play?"

Cheng Zizhong also had a smile on his face, pointed at Li Qiang and said, "I have brought a big customer here, how can you thank me?" He introduced to Li Qiang, "He is Zhao Degui from Zhao Jibao's silver and gold building, and he is well-known in Hanlin City. , No one is unfamiliar with the three religions and nine streams, and there are silver houses opened by him in the capital." He said again: "This is Li Qiang, Mr. Li, who is new to Hanlin, and the two of you are very close. Hey, old monkey, don't invite Mr. Li in."

Zhao Degui nodded and bowed to let a group of people into the inner hall, and sat down to serve tea.

Accompanied by the master of the magistrate's yamen in person, it is conceivable that he must be a big customer. Zhao Degui greeted him beamingly.The four little girls, whom Mr. Li called younger sisters, asked the family members to come out and get some snacks to talk with them.

"The shop has recently made a batch of gold and silver jewelry. Is Mr. Li practicing martial arts? I just bought three high-quality immortal stones from the capital. Would you like to take a look?"

Li Qiang nodded, and put two palm-sized top-grade jadeites, a top-quality Yubin stone, and four diamonds of different sizes on the coffee table.He asked, "Old Zhao, take a look, are these worth anything?"

Cheng Zizhong saw it first, took a deep breath, and said in surprise: "Extreme fairy stones, emeralds, and precious stones, hey! Look, old monkey." His voice changed.

Master Zhao was busy asking his assistant to get the jewelry, he was taken aback by Cheng Zizhong, he turned his head and saw something on the coffee table, and was dumbfounded.He has been in the jewelry business for so long, but he has never seen such beautiful jewels.

Fatty Qi, the shopkeeper of the tailor shop, his small eyes that were originally in a line suddenly opened round, with a greedy light flashing in his eyes, he wiped his saliva, and kept saying in his heart: "Scattering wealth Bodhisattva, be merciful and merciful!" Me, I climbed through the wealth path. Me, the price I quoted is too low."

Gently knocking on the coffee table, Li Qiang coughed and laughed secretly: "Dizzy! I wasn't very excited when I got it, but it was just a few stones."

In fact, Li Qiang was already very rich when he was on Earth, and when he reached the stage of spiritual solitude, his demand for material things would drop rapidly.Ordinary cultivators have to spend a lot of effort to restrain the temptation of material life from the heartbeat stage to the spiritual silence stage. Practice again.Li Qiang's starting point is very high. Zi Yanxin itself is a kind of unconscious Nascent Soul. He is equivalent to having a Nascent Soul first, and then repairing the missing parts. His mentality will naturally change with the degree of diligence.

"Invite the old man to come quickly." Zhao Degui ordered the assistant excitedly.

"His old man is a real cultivator, a famous half-immortal, and the real backstage master here. He is very powerful, especially playing the latest mobile game Piaomiao Journey, he is extremely powerful!" Cheng Zizhong told Li Qiang quietly.

Zhao Degui picked up the Yubin Stone and said, "It's the first time I've seen this kind of top-grade fairy stone." After looking at it carefully, he said, "This Yubin Stone is worth at least 10 taels of silver. The price is higher."

"The old man is here." A buddy reported.

A tall old man walked into the room, with snow-white hair gathered on top of his head, two longevity eyebrows inserted obliquely into the temples like two unsheathed sharp swords, and a steel needle-like beard on his broad mouth was neatly combed.The old man gave people a very forthright feeling, and Li Qiang immediately liked him when he saw it.

Mr. Zhao saw Li Qiang as soon as he entered the door, and never looked anywhere else. He just stared at him, and he didn't even seem to hear Cheng Zizhong's greeting.

Zhao Degui panicked, he had never seen the old man's expression like this, he was crying and smiling, it was very strange.Zhao Degui shouted: "Father, father, what's the matter with you?"

Mr. Zhao stopped Zhao Degui with a wave of his hand, and asked, "Have you merged yet? Well, it's not like, you..." He used honorifics, and his tone was sincere and fearful.

Li Qiang was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that Cheng Zizhong had just said that he was a cultivator.He smiled and said two words: "Yuanying."

Everyone in the room was dumbfounded, and they didn't understand what the two of them said.

"Plop", Mr. Zhao knelt on the ground, touched the ground with his forehead, and said, "Master, please give me some guidance. The younger generation just consecrated the year before last, but it seems to have stagnated recently. Please be merciful, Master, and accept me as an apprentice."

Zhao Degui was dumbfounded. Even his father knelt down and couldn't stand up. He also knelt down with a "plop".Immediately afterwards, a series of "plops" sounded, it was the guy who saw that the head of the house was kneeling, and he stopped standing, and all knelt down.

Li Qiang can't see this. Apart from worshiping ancestors and Bodhisattvas, modern Chinese would kneel down and worship living people.

As soon as he stood up, there was a loud "gudong" sound beside him, and Li Qiang was startled. Who made such a loud noise, like smashing a big gun.Looking down, he saw that the fat shopkeeper of the tailor shop was also kneeling on the ground.Li Qiang held back his laughter and said, "Get up, or I'll leave."

Walking to Mr. Zhao, Li Qiang went to help him.Unexpectedly, this old man was really stubborn, he just refused to get up, and kept saying, "Master, be merciful! Master be merciful!"

Li Qiang sighed helplessly, and said: "Okay, okay, I'm merciful, I'm merciful, get up quickly." He thought: "It's not like this for the sake of cultivation." What a difficult task, in addition to consuming energy, you also need to spend a lot of money to buy fairy stones and visit a master. If you don't cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in your lifetime, then all your efforts will be in vain.

"Master, please sit up." Mr. Zhao said respectfully.

Li Qiang screamed: "Don't, don't, I don't dare to accept you as an apprentice. You, don't kneel, don't kneel, let's learn from each other, okay?" My dad is still a big apprentice, how can I mess around with him when I take him out.

Cheng Zizhong was not surprised that Mr. Zhao was a teacher. After all, it is not a shame for a master to be a teacher.What was strange to him was that this Li Qiang seemed to be very afraid of others kneeling down to him, as long as he knelt down for him, he would be in a hurry.

Seeing Li Qiang's refusal, he persuaded with a smile: "Everyone listen to me, Mr. Li seems unwilling to accept disciples."

Li Qiang nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes."

"And Mr. Zhao is determined to be a teacher."

Mr. Zhao said anxiously: "Don't call me Mr. Zhao, call me Zhao Hao. Master, you must accept your disciple no matter what, and I beg you sincerely." The determination of his attitude made Li Qiang's hair stand on end.

"Then let Zhao Hao be Master Li's registered disciple, how about it?"

After a fierce struggle, Zhao Hao finally got his wish. This old man in his 70s became Li Qiang's first registered apprentice.

At Li Qiang's insistence, the jewelry on the coffee table was given to Zhao Hao's family as a gift, and the Yubin stone was given to Zhao Hao for his cultivation.After Yinlou settled the accounts of the tailor shop, Li Qiang gave the cloak to Cheng Zizhong without hesitation, and picked out some jewelry and other things for the four little sisters.

Li Qiang knows very well that "human harmony" is a must in any place.

After staying only one night in the VIP room of the Zhifu Yamen, Li Qiang asked to move to the hotel.It's not that he has any objections to Feng Kaiyun, he just wants to know more about the local customs, but he can't see anything in the magistrate's yamen.

Under Cheng Zizhong's mediation, Feng Kaiyun had no choice but to agree.Before leaving, Li Qiang gave many gifts to Feng Kaiyun, Cheng Zizhong and the four servant girls.Feng Kaiyun was a bit surprised when he received the gift, he didn't care what he gave, the important thing was to see that Li Qiang had no malice towards him.

Zhao Hao, an old apprentice, tried his best to invite Li Qiang to the silver building. Li Qiang also wanted to use his experience to inquire about the situation of Tiantingxing, and at the same time, he also wanted to find a quiet place to practice some urgently needed equipment, so he followed him.

Zhao Hao was very happy, he was so busy in the silver building, he not only cleaned out the whole back garden, but also specially found a few slaves and servants to serve Li Qiang.After everything was done, he followed closely behind Li Qiang, and listened to the teacher's instruction step by step.

That night, Li Qiang began to practice his first weapon.When he collected the materials and tools and returned to the residence, the old apprentice Zhao Hao refused to leave no matter what he said, he must stay in the house.He drove away the servants and maidservants, closed the door and stood devoutly by the side, staring at Li Qiang intently.

Li Qiang was angry and funny, and he was too embarrassed to drive him away.

He first placed a defense formation in the room, activated it with true energy, and after checking it was correct, he explained how Zhao Hao went in and out, and asked him to stand in the Kun position of the defense formation, because once he started to practice, the temperature in the defense formation would never be high. What Zhao Hao can resist is the only way to stand in the dark corner of the position of Kun to be unaffected.After all the preparations, he started his first practice.

Li Qiang is going to practice a protective gear, a hand crossbow, and a spear first.

These three things are all in the bracelet that Fu Shan left him, but they are all semi-finished products that have just taken shape, and they are still far behind.Li Qiang decided to practice these three things first and accumulate some experience. After all, it was the first time for him to use training equipment.

First take off the clothes and pants, only wearing a pair of small pants.Taking out the protective gear, it was a rhombus-shaped arm shield, only [-] centimeters in size, silver-white, with no patterns on it.Looking at Zhao Hao, he reminded again: "When I am refining the weapon, please don't disturb me, you just need to watch."

Zhao Hao's Taoism has not yet reached this stage, and he doesn't know how to cultivate, so he can't help but get nervous.

The star-studded inner armor emerged from Li Qiang's body, and Zhao Hao immediately understood why he had to take off his clothes.The little underpants immediately turned to ashes, and the purple light reflected the bright light in the room.The small silver shield was suspended in the air, and two purple flames shot out from Li Qiang's hands, burning continuously.

Zhao Hao was stunned.This is Samadhi True Fire, also known as Heart Fire. Only those who have cultivated into Nascent Soul can have such powerful True Essence.I thought to myself: "It turns out that the master has already cultivated the Yuanying, and he is already a man among gods."

Zhao Hao is actually ignorant.Practitioners in the realm of self-cultivation never think of themselves as gods, and those who have cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage can be said to be as numerous as a cow's hair.Cultivators who can cultivate to this stage generally avoid the secular society and go to submerge on their own. Moreover, Tianting star is not a planet where practitioners gather, but a planet that is mainly composed of practitioners. The Fengyuan star where Fu Shan is located counts as one. Li Qiang's appearance here can only be said to be an accident.

Li Qiang's spirit has been completely integrated into the small silver shield, and he found that the silver shield is a small protective formation without any energy in it.Because the manufacturing method is recorded in Yutong Jane, it is not difficult for him. After careful adjustment, Li Qiang began to input energy.

Since Li Qiang's foundation is Ziyan Heart, which is of fire nature, it is of great help to the refining tool.There are two types of refining, "refinement" and "heart refinement", and the difference between them is incomparable. "Smelting" is to use utensils as the cauldron furnace, immortal stone as the primer, and use the real essence to control the cultivation. "Xin Lian" uses heaven and earth as the cauldron to control cultivation with the real fire of Samadhi and the power of real energy. It is the supreme way to refine the best utensils.

Energy gradually filled the silver shield.Li Qiang used the "Zuanzi Jue" to cut away the true essence, used the "Guzi Jue" to seal the formation, and used the "Zhuanzi Jue" to make the formation flow slowly in the silver shield. Although he was not very proficient, he still completed it smoothly up.

With an idea, Li Qiang decided to add another formation to the silver shield, an attack formation.

At this time, you can see the importance of the storage bracelet. One by one fairy stones emerge from your hands and are thrown into the silver shield. They are: four water-based fairy stones for their softness, two golden fairy stones for their sharpness, Use it to explode a fiery fairy stone.Because it is the first time to manufacture, bumps and bumps are unavoidable, but it is finally completed.

After the core part was completed, Li Qiang decided to make the silver shield look better. The first image that came to mind was the "dragon". Anyway, the totem of the Chinese nation will always be rooted in the hearts of every Chinese descendant.Li Qiang thought it was very satisfactory to use a dragon as a shield.

It is extremely easy to forge the shield with the real fire of samadhi. Whatever you think in your heart, the shield will become whatever you want.Li Qiang made the edge of the silver shield into a flame shape, embedded some gold and silver threads for decoration, and finally he was done.

The old apprentice Zhao Hao felt that his eyes were wide open, even though he watched for seven days and seven nights, he was still very happy in his heart.

Li Qiang opened his eyes and looked at the arm shield in his hand, with a feeling of pride overflowing his face.

The [-]cm silver arm shield has changed its appearance, the silver is golden-purple, the dragon on the shield surface is slightly protruding, and it seems to be flying away with its teeth and claws. The flame-shaped edge of the shield seems to be burning with fire.Li Qiang himself wondered and doubted: "I made such a beautiful arm shield? I can't believe it."

Yang Yang's arm shield is automatically attached to his left arm, and he immediately feels that the arm shield is integrated with himself. As long as he activates his true energy, the formation in the arm shield will be activated immediately.Li Qiang wanted to try its power, seeing Zhao Hao, he smiled happily.

The old apprentice Zhao Hao held his famous weapon "Giant Wind Knife", raised his strength by eight points, and shouted: "Look at the knife!"

The giant wind knife sliced ​​through the air, and the sharp piercing sound made the scalp tingle.Li Qiang moved with his thoughts, and the protective formation of the arm shield started to activate, surrounded by a purple and golden dragon full of flames, and the attack formation also activated, "Ping..." "Boom..."

The giant wind knife shattered.

Li Qiang yelled secretly, and hurriedly stopped the attacking formation.When his figure moved, he grabbed Zhao Hao by the collar and threw him out. "It's dangerous! It's dangerous! He almost finished playing. It's a joke to say it. The first apprentice was killed by the first arm shield I made, dizzy!"

Zhao Hao's knife seemed to be chopping on a steel pillar, and what frightened him was that the steel pillar would still hit it backwards.At the same time that the giant wind knife shattered, the force of the shock made his whole arm numb and his mouth bleeding. He watched the purple gold dragon rush towards him, and thought to himself, "It's over." flew out.

Sitting on the ground, Zhao Hao was full of emotions: "My martial arts is outstanding among the Three Kingdoms in the Green Basin, and I am a master no matter what. Master only tried a move with a small arm shield, and I even made one move in a row. I couldn’t even pass it in, if it wasn’t for Master’s hand, it would be unimaginable!”

Feeling guilty, Li Qiang helped Zhao Hao up and said, "Hey, I broke your weapon. How about it, I'll refine a new one and give it to you, as an apology for you."

The old apprentice Zhao Hao was both surprised and delighted, the weapon sent by the master must be a fairy treasure. "Thank you, Master, do you have a name on this arm shield?" Seeing Li Qiang shaking his head, he said again: "I have a name in my heart, I don't know if Master likes it or not?"

Li Qiang said curiously: "Let's listen to it."

"It's called the Red Flame Dragon Shield, okay?"

Li Qiang cheered loudly: "Okay, I like it. The latest popular mobile game Piaomiao Journey has this weapon, hahaha, it's called the Red Flame Dragon Shield, haha."
